Maybe it was a previous Top Gun winner, and is a classic because of it?

If so, I have a plane to sell.......NOT!

See the thread "Gadgets"

The price is actually going down, if this is the same aerobat...

Same airplane! First time he had a "Buy It Now" price of $76,000, but accepted bids, which reached $45,600, but didn't meet his reserve.

This time he lowered the "Buy It Now" price to $72,000, and apparently lowered his reserve, too. He's taking "offers".

He probably should have taken the $45,600 when he had the chance!

I got them both wrong! BIN's were $72k and $68k. Not $76k and $72k!

Still, He is proud of that airplane!

Hey, if he can get his price...or anywhere close to it...more power to him. If someone will pay that kind of money, it once again proves P.T. Barnum's famous observation <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Reminds me of a Herman cartoon ...
Herman is in an art gallery looking at a painting ...

The artist is saying "Sure you can have it for 12 bucks, but wouldn't you rather have a $200 painting?"
